Lecture—The Fourth South Carolina Regiment and the Orderly Book of Capt. Barnard Elliot
May 1, 2025 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Elizabeth Chew and Melina Testin of the South Carolina Historical Society discuss a rare orderly book kept by Capt. Barnard Elliot of the Fourth South Carolina Regiment, which was incorporated into the Continental Army on June 18, 1776—ten days before the Battle of Sullivan’s Island—and disbanded on January 1, 1781. Drawing from the orderly book, which will be on view during the program, this lecturewill focus on the Fourth South Carolina Regiment’s service during the Revolution and the significance of the orderly book’s contents, including reports of the Battle of
Sullivan’s Island.
